Hope - you cracked me up with that one! It is so true - his dog if he had one
Catherine - I am with you - that would have been the end of the presents!
Janet - my F used to say the same thing. Only one present? Just like a little kid!
You know, it got to the point that I would dread that time of the year. His b-day was close to father's day, and he would insist that we have 2 separate parties to celebrate both - with separate gifts at each party. He used to get so disappointed in me for not getting 2 presents. Every single year he would insist on those parties.
For my kids, I had b-d parties every year. One day he said to me that they never did that for me (have a party every year), and that it was excessive to celebrate their b-days every year. Can you believe it - I am still dumbfounded by that one - it was ok to have 2 parties for him every year - but it is excessive to celebrate your children's b-day?????
